But now, she knows that sometimes, a wish is just a wish. No matter how well she behaves, trying not to ask her mother for money, working part-time to earn living expenses, working hard on household chores, and cleaning up after her brother, in her mother’s eyes, she is still nothing.
Evelina turned a blind eye and still full of anger said, "I’ll say it one last time, if you really let your brother go to jail, then I won’t acknowledge you as my daughter."
Mabel Quinn smiled bitterly, "Mom, just consider me unfilial."
After she finished speaking, she looked up at Kyle Kinston beside her, "Let’s go, I don’t want to stay here any longer."
"Okay." He said, holding her hand, and they walked out of the police station.
Evelina was stunned. She hadn’t expected that her daughter, who never dared to defy her, had recently been defying her repeatedly. First, she lost the Grant Family’s house, and now even her son was going to jail.
"Truly a jinx!" Evelina said hatefully, wanting to rush up and beat her daughter, but restrained herself because of the man standing next to her daughter.
"You, as a mother, are something else. Your son did such a despicable thing to your daughter, yet you scold your daughter and protect your son. Is she really your biological daughter? I’ve never seen a mother . Anyone would think you were her stepmother!" The policeman couldn’t help but say. Witnessing the scene just now filled him with righteous indignation.
Evelina’s eyes flickered for a moment, "How is she not my biological daughter? How do I look like a stepmother? If you keep saying that, I’ll sue you!"
The policeman felt exasperated, "Fine, fine, instead of making a scene here, you’d better find a lawyer for your son." With a mother like that, it’s no wonder the son turned out this way. It’s just a pity for the daughter.
But... that daughter, she’s now in the company of Mr. Kyle! However...the policeman looked again at Evelina, who seemed unaware that her daughter had now connected with someone influential.
Of course, this policeman had no intention of reminding Evelina of this point.
In the car, Mabel took a glance at Kyle Kinston’s left shoulder, "Is your shoulder okay?" Earlier, it was him who took the blow intended for her from her mother.
"As long as it didn’t hit the left hand, it’s fine." Kyle Kinston said.
"Today, I must have made a fool of myself in front of you. My mom has always favored my brother, so towards me..."
"Such family members aren’t worth keeping." He said indifferently.
"It’s not that easy, after all, they’re family. No matter what, my mom raised me to this age. I just hope mom realizes that blindly pampering my brother will only cause him to make even bigger mistakes in the future."
"Family?" Kyle Kinston’s lips curled into a faint smile, seeming both mocking and self-deprecating.
A scene suddenly flashed in Mabel’s mind of that night he had a fever, murmuring as if in a nightmare, "Mommy, don’t hit me." Voice splurged out, "Was your mother also not good to you?"
His body trembled suddenly, and the atmosphere in the car seemed to change abruptly. He turned his head, those dark phoenix eyes stared straight at her, as if trying to see through her entirely.
Mabel felt the hair on her body stand on end, as if she had touched some taboo just now, even the driver at the front, noticeably sensed the unusual atmosphere inside the car, getting nervous, wishing he hadn’t heard Miss Mabel’s words earlier.
